Does anyone have Elm 2.0 ported to SystemV/AT (i.e., the 286 version)? I have installed it (had to gin up a mkdir() function) but the delete mail function causes the following: Emergency Exit taken! All temp files intact! Segment Violation signal! If anyone has already solved this problem, I would appreciate receiving the corrections (diffs) before I start to try to figure this one out. What is interesting is that Elm 1.7 beta did the same thing, but Elm 1.5 did not. Thanks.

Get a copy of Elm 2.1, it works on System V/AT without modification. The only changes I had to make were to add '-Ml' to the compilation and link commands in the makefiles. -- John A.

I get the very same errors reported by Mr. Kiecker. (I'm at patch level 1 and did--as John suggested-- compile and link with -Ml options.) Any suggestions welcome.
